Examining the Impact of Elections in Argentina with Former President Macri
Minister of Economy Sergio Massa and lawmaker Javier Milei have two vastly different visions for the future of Argentina. Voters are more motivated than ever, driven by inflation, high poverty rates, high interest rates, and capital controls. The candidates share distinctively different views for the future of the country, the third-largest economy in Latin America and the one with the highest International Monetary Fund debt. Please join us for a conversation with former President Mauricio Macri of Argentina and former President Iv谩n Duque M谩rquez of Colombia to discuss the implications of Sunday's election for Argentina and for regional dynamics in South America.
This event will be in Spanish.
